This guy spent the whole date creticing the restaurant we were in. Not once did he mention that satern was visible, or that the JWSt is scanning the Orion cluster looking for new young planets. Brought up the moon and he mentioned mineing rights and opertinitys to Frack the moon. Only thing he was exited about space was Elon and his polluting starlink WiFi adapters that have destroyed the night sky.

Dude, you gotta fix your autocorrect, or at least set it up.

It’s kind of adorably misspelled in a way you don’t see too often anymore. I hope they don’t edit the post

lol i specifically turn off my auto correct

at least you can tell it’s not ai slop

New Voight Kampff strategy, feigned illiteracy

You’re giving them a new tool to trick us!

Why? In my experience, it corrects more often than it fucks up, so if you stopped using it because you don’t like the one mistake it makes every 100 words or so, you should probably reevaluate your decision.

And if your keyboard app is making more mistakes than it corrects, you might want to consider trying a different keyboard app.

It’s a much bigger problem when you speak multiple languages and leave them all enabled in the keyboard. When writing a simple comment like this, I fuck up the typing of one out of every 5-10 words on average and auto correct fixes them for me. In some other contexts like replying to a work message, it is auto correct who fucks up that often.

Personally I avoid using autocorrect for the same reason I avoid using a calculator for mundane calculations. I ascribe to the belief that your brain works in the same way a muscle does; that is, if you don’t use it… you lose it.

In many instances, autocorrect can be a god send (someone with dyslexia no doubt finds it invaluable for example), but for the layperson, my opinion is that it’s just another tool that promotes laziness, and a lack of thought around grammar/spelling etc.

I’m not suggesting my way is the correct approach, but rather offering an alternative viewpoint as to why some people disable assistance tools such as autocorrect.

I get where you’re coming from, but for autocorrect to work properly, you still need to know how to spell.

Autocorrect is more for fixing typos, especially useful if you’re like me and don’t look at the keyboard while tapping away. It doesn’t work as effectively if you can’t spell.
